FFS the folder metaphor has been used since Xerox Star or earlier. It came into general use when Woz developed Lisa - which pre-dated Windows '95 by a decade or more

The established convention is to use 'folder' when referring to the container and 'directory' when referring to its contents. Actually both folder and directory are metaphors for inode.
